Default My first LS400 and current mods

Recently picked up this 1999 LS400. Has high mileage (265,498) but still runs like a champ. Previous owner said it needed a timing belt change, so that was first on list. I bought an Aisin complete timing belt kit from Rock Auto along with some other maintenance items. So far I've changed the O2 sensors, spark plugs, timing belt and components, water pump, serpentine tensioner pulley bearing, did air box mod and replaced filter, blacked out headlights, blacked out fog lights and fake lights beside fogs, Amber turn signal lights and blacked out grill and emblems, full interior light led conversion and led fog lights. Next mods will be window tint then wheels and suspension (going low)

i appreciate it and it was very easy to do! Thanks for the comments! To Amber the corners I used the translucent Amber Tamiya model paint works like a charm and a very simple mod.

i saw your thread Wolfy, congrats great looking car! Looks like it has been very well taken care of and +1 for the different color. I wish I could have found an all black one, but I like the white as well.
